I would just like to share with you a little taste of college fashion! (Pictures compliments of Evelyn!! Thank you!!) (Sorry again for the sideways pictures... One day I'll figure out this newfangled contraption!)

Ok, I don't really go out in public like this... Except one time to do laundry. :)

Once upon a time I have the cabinet in the bathroom above the toilet. I was trying to get something out of my cabinet when my mascara flung out! I tried my hardest to hit it away so it wouldn't land in the toilet, but to no avail. The following pictures were taken by my lovely roommate, Evelyn, who came running in after hearing me scream...

Last night my roommates and I were sitting around talking and we all decided that we were hungry. We were on our way to the kitchen when we heard a knock on our door. Standing outside were a boy and a girl on a date playing a game called "Bigger and Better" and they asked if we had anything bigger or better than a huge bag of "Coco Roos" and bag of freshly popped popcorn. Hannah came to our rescue and gave them 3 English pence and a couple pennies on a lovely poster that Evelyn made! I say it was a very good deal indeed!!

Living in a cooking dorm brings a sense of independence to any new freshman here in Rexburg. Along with that independence comes the need for a heightened use of creativity when it comes to cooking dinners. One interesting creation that I came up with so far is that of fried cucumber. I know it sounds gross, but fried zucchini is good, right? I had some unused cucumbers and was trying to be creative and was thinking of cucumber bread or cookies or something else that usually has zucchini, but without baking soda or cinnamon, they wouldn't work so well... That was when I settled with fried cucumber. And you know what? It was actually pretty good!

To make this lovely delicacy, beat some eggs. One egg will probably do for 1/2 a cucmber.

After that, pour some flour into a bowl. (Maybe I should write a cookbook...)

Dip sliced cucmbers into the egg and then into the flour and then fry it in your favorite oil. It helps if you put a little seasoning in the flour for extra pizzaz.

I am going to attempt to keep a blog going about the many adventures I have here at the lovely Brigham Young University- Idaho! The last time I tried to keep a blog didn't go so well, so hopefully this time I will be able to keep it up to date! Here goes nothing!
